Clogs have officially crossed over from divisive to downright cool—and yes, fashion people (Jennifer Lawrence included) are making them work for winter 2025. The key? Styling them in a way that feels intentional and elevated. Instead of the boho pairings of seasons past, think modern minimalism: sleek wide-leg trousers, a sharp wool coat, and an oversize scarf casually draped over the shoulders. The result is effortless and editor approved, the kind of look that says you know exactly what you’re doing—even if you’re technically wearing what’s been dubbed an “ugly” shoe.

Another way fashion girls are keeping clogs relevant this winter is through texture play. Suede, shearling, and smooth leather versions add just enough depth to an outfit to make them feel luxe. Try pairing a shearling-lined clog with straight-leg jeans, a chunky knit, and a structured bag for that cozy-but-polished effect that dominates street style right now. It’s the perfect balance between Scandinavian practicality and downtown nonchalance.

And if you’re going for the 2025 version of “cool,” the trick is all in the styling details. Go for tonal tights under a midi skirt or pair them with slouchy wool socks and slightly cropped denim for an off-duty vibe. A longline tailored coat or a sleek puffer instantly takes them from homey to high fashion. In short: the clogs of winter 2025 are less “granola vibes” and more “quiet luxury statement”—proof that even the ugliest shoe trend can look chic with the right pieces.
